- the contents of Ti and Nb individually exceed 0.20%, the carbide is coarsened, thereby deteriorating the hole expansion ratio and the low-temperature toughness. Therefore, when these components are added, the contents of Ti and Nb are individually 0.01% or more and 0.20% or less.
- the lower limit of the contents of Ti and Nb is preferably 0.02% or more.
- the upper limit of the contents of Ti and Nb is preferably 0.05% or less.
- B suppresses generation of the ferrite phase from the grain boundaries of the austenite phase and increases the strength, and also suppresses the growth of the carbide at the grain boundaries and improves the hole expansion ratio and the low-temperature toughness. Such effects are exhibited when the B content is 0.0002% or more. On the other hand, when the B content exceeds 0.01%, Fe 2 B is precipitated at prior austenite grain boundaries, and thus embrittlement is caused, thereby deteriorating the low-temperature toughness.

The upper limit of the B content is preferably 0.0050% or less.

The effect is exhibited when the content is 0.001% or more. On the other hand, when the contents of the elements individually exceed 0.05%, grain boundary segregation causes embrittlement, thereby deteriorating the low-temperature toughness.

- the bainite and the tempered martensite increase the steel tensile strength.
- the hardness difference between these microstructures and the ferrite phase is smaller than that between the as-quenched martensite and the ferrite phase, and thus an adverse effect on the hole expansion ratio is small.
- the bainite and the tempered martensite are phases effective for securing the tensile strength without considerably decreasing the hole expansion ratio. If the bainite and the tempered martensite have an area fraction of less than 10%, it may be difficult to secure a high tensile strength. On the other hand, if the bainite and the tempered martensite have an area fraction of more than 90%, the ductility may deteriorate.

- the hardness difference between the as-quenched martensite and the ferrite phase is large, and thus when the as-quenched martensite is present excessively in an area fraction of more than 10%, the number of void generation sites increases and the hole expansion ratio decreases. Therefore, the area fraction of the as-quenched martensite is 10% or less, preferably 8% or less. Even if the as-quenched martensite is not included and its area fraction is 0%, the effects of the present invention are not affected and no problem is caused.
- the area fractions are measured by methods described in the examples.
- the retained austenite not only contributes to an increase in the steel tensile strength, but also works effectively for an improvement in the steel ductility.
- the content of the retained austenite is preferably 1% or more and more preferably 2% or more.
- the retained austenite close to the edge is induced by a strain to transform into martensite.
- the hardness difference between the martensite and the ferrite phase is large, and thus if the retained austenite is present excessively and its area fraction exceeds 10%, the number of void generation sites increases and the hole expansion ratio decreases. Therefore, the retained austenite phase has an area fraction of 10% or less, preferably 8% or less.
- the retained austenite preferably has an area fraction of less than 5%. Even if the retained austenite is not included and its area fraction is 0%, the effects of the present invention are not affected and no problem is caused.
- a volume fraction measured by a method described in Example is regarded as an area fraction and used for the area fraction.

- Average equivalent-circle diameter of carbide (cementite) present at interface between ferrite phase and hard second phase 200 nm or less
- the carbide present at the interface between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase has an average equivalent-circle diameter of 200 nm or less, stress concentration in deformation is suppressed and the hole expansion ratio improves ( Fig. 1(b) ). Furthermore, the carbide that is present at the interface between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase and that has an average equivalent-circle diameter of 200 nm or less has an effect of improving the low-temperature toughness. In deformation at low temperature, the carbide particles present at the interface between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase are detached at the interface with the ferrite phase and the hard second phase as shown in Fig.
- the carbide present at the interface between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase has an average equivalent-circle diameter of 200 nm or less, thereby suppressing the detachment of the carbide particles at the interface with the ferrite phase and the hard second phase and improving the low-temperature toughness ( Fig. 2(b) ).
- the carbide present at the interface between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase has a shorter equivalent-circle diameter, the hole expansion ratio and the low-temperature toughness are more effectively improved. Therefore the carbide has an average equivalent-circle diameter of 200 nm or less.
- the average equivalent-circle diameter is preferably 100 nm or less, and most preferably the carbide is not present.
- the carbide may include an alloy carbide including Cr, Mo, V, Ti, Nb, or the like.
- the average equivalent-circle diameters are measured by methods described in the examples. After mechanically polishing a steel sheet in a direction parallel to the sheet surface to a position of 1/4t (total thickness t) in a sheet thickness direction, revealing the steel sheet microstructure by electropolishing and capturing, by using a TEM (transmission electron microscope), an image of an extraction replica to which projections and depressions on the surface are transferred by using an evaporated carbon film are performed.
- a strip-formed portion that is present between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase and that has a contrast different from the ferrite and hard second phases is the interface between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase (see Fig. 3 ).
- the hard second and ferrite phases revealed by electropolishing differ from each other in height on the steel sheet, and thus the sloping portion between the two phases is the interface, which corresponds to the strip-formed portion in the TEM image of the extraction replica.
- the expression "present at the interface” means that the carbide is at least in contact with the interface, which seems like a strip in the image of the microstructure.
- a galvanizing layer may be formed on the surface of the steel sheet. Subsequently, the galvanizing layer will be described.
- Fe% of the galvanizing layer is preferably 3 mass% or less.
- Fe% of the galvanizing layer is preferably 7 mass% to 15 mass%.
- the producing method in the present invention includes a hot-rolling step, an pickling step, a cold-rolling step, and an annealing step.
- the hot-rolling step is a step of rolling a slab having the above composition at a finishing temperature that is the Ar 3 transformation temperature or higher, then performing cooling at an average cooling rate of 20 °C/s or higher, and performing coiling at 550°C or lower.
- the Ar 3 transformation temperature was measured by using a formaster.
- the steel adjusted to have the above composition is smelted, for example, in a converter and formed into slab by a continuous casting process or the like.
- the slab to be used is preferably produced by a continuous casting process to prevent the macrosegregation of the components.
- the slab to be used may be produced by an ingot-making method or a thin slab casting process.
- an energy saving process such as hot direct rolling or direct rolling, which includes placing a slab into a heating furnace while keeping the slab temperature without cooling to a room temperature, or performing rolling immediately after keeping the temperature for a short time, may be applied without any problem.
- a slab used in the hot-rolling step may be heated.
- a slab heating temperature is preferably low in terms of energy saving. If the heating temperature falls below 1100°C, the carbide is not sufficiently dissolved, and thus even after continuous annealing, carbide having an average equivalent-circle diameter of more than 200 nm remains at the interface between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase, thereby decreasing the hole expansion ratio and the low-temperature toughness.
- the slab heating temperature is desirably 1300°C or lower. Even when the slab heating temperature is lowered, from the viewpoint of preventing problems in hot rolling, a so-called sheet bar heater may be used, in which a sheet bar is heated.
- Ar 3 temperature Ar 3 transformation temperature
- the finishing temperature falls below the Ar 3 temperature, ⁇ and ⁇ are generated in the rolling, and thus pearlite is generated in the subsequent cooling and coiling treatments. Cementite included in the pearlite does not dissolve and remains even after retaining in a temperature range of 750°C to 900°C in the following annealing step. As a result, cementite present at the interface between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase has a particle length of more than 200 nm, thereby decreasing the hole expansion ratio and the low-temperature toughness. Therefore, the finishing temperature is the Ar 3 temperature or higher.
- the upper limit of the finishing temperature is not particularly limited; however, the upper limit is preferably 1000°C or lower because performing the following cooling to a coiling temperature becomes difficult.
- the Ar 3 temperature is a temperature at which ferrite transformation starts in the cooling.
- Average cooling rate 20°C/s or more
- the average cooling rate after the finish rolling is 20 °C/s or more, so that the microstructure of the hot-rolled steel sheet includes bainite as a main component and becomes a uniform microstructure, and thus the cementite is less likely to be generated.
- the carbide at the interface between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase have an average equivalent-circle diameter of 200 nm or less, thereby improving the hole expansion ratio and the low-temperature toughness. If the average cooling rate falls below 20 °C/s, pearlite is generated in the steel, and cementite included in the pearlite does not dissolve and remains even after retaining in a temperature range of 750°C to 900°C.
- the average cooling rate is 20 °C/s or more.
- the upper limit of the average cooling rate is not particularly limited; however, the upper limit is preferably 50 °C/s or less because performing cooling to 550°C or lower by the time coiling starts becomes difficult.
- the coiling temperature is 550°C or lower, and thus the microstructure of the hot-rolled steel sheet includes bainite as a main component and becomes a uniform microstructure, and thus the cementite is less likely to be generated.
- the carbide present at the interface between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase has an average equivalent-circle diameter of 200 nm or lower, thereby improving the hole expansion ratio and the low-temperature toughness. If the coiling temperature exceeds 550°C, pearlite is generated in the steel, and cementite included in the pearlite does not dissolve and remains even after the retaining in the temperature range of 750°C to 900°C.
- the coiling temperature is 550°C or lower. If the coiling temperature falls below 300°C, controlling the coiling temperature is difficult and temperature unevenness is likely to occur, thereby causing a problem, such as a decrease in the cold rolling properties. Therefore, the coiling temperature is preferably 300°C or higher. Even if the coiling temperature is controlled in this range, the cementite may remain in the hot-rolled steel sheet; however, the remaining cementite can be dissolved in the austenite phase in the following retaining in the temperature range of 750°C to 900°C.
- the finish rolling may be partly or totally a lubricated rolling.
- the lubricated rolling is effective in terms of the uniformity of the steel sheet form and the materials.
- the friction coefficient is preferably in the range of 0.25 to 0.10.
- This process is preferably a continuous rolling process in which sheet bars adjacent to each other in line are joined and subjected to continuous finish rolling are performed. Applying the continuous rolling process is desirable in terms of operational stability in the hot rolling.
- the pickling step is a step of removing an oxide scale of a surface of a hot-rolled steel sheet obtained in the hot-rolling step by performing pickling.
- the acid washing conditions are not particularly limited and may be specified appropriately.
- the cold-rolling step is a step of cold-rolling a pickled sheet after the pickling step.
- the cold-rolling conditions are not particularly limited, and conditions, such as rolling reduction, may be determined from the viewpoint of, for example, desired sheet thickness. In the present invention, the rolling reduction in the cold rolling is preferably 30% or more.
- the annealing step is a step of heating a cold-rolled steel sheet obtained in the cold-rolling step to a temperature of 750°C to 900°C while heating the steel sheet at an average heating rate of 10 °C/s or more in a temperature range of 500°C to the Ac 1 transformation temperature and cooling the steel sheet to a temperature lower than or equal to (Ms temperature - 100°C) while cooling the steel sheet at an average cooling rate of 10 °C/s or more and to a cooling stop temperature of (Ms temperature - 100°C).
- a retention time in a temperature range of 750°C to 900°C is 10 seconds or more in the heating and the cooling.
- the steel sheet is heated at an average heating rate of 30 °C/s or more to a temperature of 150°C or higher and 350°C or lower and retained in a temperature range of 150°C or higher and 350°C or lower for 10 seconds or more and 600 seconds or less.
- the steel sheet is heated at an average heating rate of 30 °C/s or more to a temperature of 150°C or higher and 350°C or lower and retained in a temperature range of 150°C or higher and 350°C or lower for 10 seconds or more and 600 seconds or less, or after the cooling is performed to a temperature lower than or equal to (Ms temperature - 100°C), the steel sheet is retained in a temperature range of 150°C or higher and 350°C or lower for 10 seconds or more and 600 seconds or less.
- the Ac 1 transformation temperature was measured by the Formaster test.
- the average heating rate is 10 °C/s or more in a recrystallization temperature range of 500°C to the Ac 1 transformation temperature, and thus ferrite recrystallization during heating is suppressed and ⁇ (austenite) generated at the Ac 1 transformation temperature or higher is made finer, thereby increasing the area of the interface between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase.
- ⁇ austenite
- the carbide has an average equivalent-circle diameter of more than 200 nm, and the hole expansion ratio and the low-temperature toughness decrease.
- the preferable average heating rate is 20 °C/s or more.
- the upper limit of the average heating rate is not particularly limited. When the average heating rate is 100 °C/s or more, the effects are saturated and furthermore the cost increases. Accordingly, 100 °C/s or less is preferable.
- the Ac 1 is a temperature at which austenite starts to be generated in heating.
- Heating temperature 750°C to 900°C
- the heating temperature falls below 750°C, the austenite phase is not sufficiently generated in the annealing, and thus a sufficient amount of the hard second phase is not secured after the annealing, thereby decreasing the strength.
- the heating temperature falls below 750°C, the cementite remaining in the steel is not caused to dissolve in the austenite phase. Accordingly, the cementite at the interface between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase has an average equivalent-circle diameter of more than 200 nm. As a result, fracture occurs from this cementite, and the hole expansion ratio and the low-temperature toughness decrease.
- the heating temperature exceeds 900°C, the amount of the ferrite phase becomes less than 10%, thereby decreasing ductility. Therefore, the heating temperature is in the range of 750°C to 900°C.
- the average heating rate from the Ac 1 transformation temperature to the above heating temperature is not particularly limited; however, the average heating rate is about 5 °C/s or less.
- the average cooling rate to a temperature of (Ms temperature - 100°C) falls below 10 °C/s, the ferrite phase and the pearlite are generated, thereby decreasing the tensile strength, the ductility, and the hole expansion ratio.
- the upper limit of the average cooling rate is not particularly specified; however, if the average cooling rate is excessively high, a steel-sheet form is degraded or the control of the cooling stop temperature becomes difficult. Therefore, the average cooling rate is preferably 200 °C/s or less.
- the cooling start temperature is not particularly limited. Normally, it is sufficient that the cooling is started typically at 750°C, which is the above heating temperature.
- Cooling stop temperature (Ms temperature - 100°C) or lower
- the austenite phase partly transforms into martensite and bainite, and the remaining austenite phase becomes an untransformed austenite phase. Due to the subsequent retaining performed at the cooling stop temperature or in the temperature range of 150°C to 350°C, or due to the cooling performed to a room temperature after the coating or alloying treatment, the martensite becomes tempered martensite, the bainite is tempered, and the untransformed austenite phase becomes bainite, retained austenite, or as-quenched martensite.
- the control of the cooling stop temperature relates to the final area fraction of as-quenched martensite and retained austenite and to the final area fraction of bainite and tempered martensite.
- the temperature difference between Ms temperature and the cooling stop temperature is important. Accordingly, the Ms temperature is used as an index of the control of the cooling stop temperature.
- the cooling stop temperature is equal to or lower than (Ms temperature - 100°C). martensite transformation proceeds sufficiently in the cooling, and thus the final area fraction of the bainite and the tempered martensite equals 30% to 90%, thereby improving the hole expansion ratio. If the cooling stop temperature is higher than (Ms temperature - 100°C), the martensite transformation is insufficient when the cooling stops, which increases in the amount of untransformed austenite and generates more than 10% of as-quenched martensite or retained austenite in the end, thereby decreasing the hole expansion ratio. Therefore, the cooling stop temperature is a temperature lower than or equal to (Ms temperature - 100°C). The lower limit of the cooling stop temperature is not particularly specified.
- the cooling stop temperature is preferably higher than or equal to (Ms temperature - 200°C).
- the Ms temperature can be determined by measuring a volume change in the steel sheet during the cooling in the annealing and determining a change in the coefficient of linear expansion. The Ms temperature varies depending on the annealing temperature and the cooling rate, and thus the Ms temperature is measured at each condition.
- the retention time at 750°C to 900°C falls below 10 seconds in the heating and the cooling, the austenite phase is not sufficiently generated in the annealing, and thus the amount of the hard second phase is not sufficiently secured during the cooling in the annealing.
- the retention time falls below 10 seconds, the cementite remaining in the steel is not caused to dissolve in the austenite phase. Accordingly, the cementite at the interface between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase has an average equivalent-circle diameter of more than 200 nm. Fracture occurs from this cementite, and the hole expansion ratio and the low-temperature toughness decrease. Therefore, the retention time is 10 seconds or more.

- a carbide is precipitated with tempering.
- the lower limit of the temperature range falls below 150°C, the martensite is insufficiently tempered and the hardness difference from the ferrite phase becomes large, thereby decreasing the hole expansion ratio.
- the upper limit of the temperature range exceeds 350°C, a carbide is coarsened with tempering, and the carbide at the interface between the ferrite phase and the hard second phase has an average equivalent-circle diameter of more than 200 nm, thereby decreasing the hole expansion ratio and the low-temperature toughness. Therefore, the retaining is performed in the temperature range of 150°C to 350°C.

Therefore, the retention time is 30 seconds or less.

- temper rolling may be further performed on the cold-rolled steel sheet, the galvanized steel sheet, or the galvannealed steel sheet for, for example, the form correction or the surface roughness adjustment.
